Drottninggatan – Stockholm City..

The street was laid out in the 1630s and 1640s when the surrounding area was built on a rectilinear grid plan, a significant innovation in Stockholm’s urban environment. The major part of the street is car-free and lined with numerous stores and shops, one of the largest being the Åhléns City department store. During summer, the street is often crowded with tourists. On 7 April 2017, the street was the site of a terrorist incident, a deadly truck ramming in which five people died and fifteen more were injured.
